Embark on a fantastic voyage of discovery alongside three of the world's greatest explorers in this enthralling collection. Travel with Christopher Columbus and discover his captivating story, from how he convinced Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain to fund his voyages before his reputation sank so quickly that by the time of his fourth voyage he was not allowed to even anchor in Spanish waters. Set sail with Marco Polo - a name synonymous with travel and adventure - as he leaves Venice at the age of 17 and becomes personal assistant to the mighty Chinese emperor Kublai Khan. Finally, join Charles Darwin on his historic voyage aboard the Beagle, from which he conducted explorations that led to the development of his highly controversial theory of evolution by natural selection.
